Rowan Mercer has always noticed things other people don't.
The crack in a classroom ceiling that looks like a river.
The exact number of steps between home and school.
The strange student standing alone at the edge of the playground.
Nobody else seems to notice him.
Then one day, the student vanishes.
Not just from school.
From everything.
Teachers don't remember him.
Students don't remember him.
Even school records say he never existed.
As Rowan searches for answers, they uncover a terrifying secret hidden beneath their town. Shadow-like creatures known as Hollow Ones feed on forgotten memories, lost identities, and the parts of ourselves we hide from the world.
Now Rowan must face monsters that erase people from existence while struggling with anxiety, depression, friendship, and the impossible question of who they really are.
Because the more Rowan learns about the Hollow Ones...
The more they begin to realize the creatures have been watching them all along.
